Chilli Con Carne

Finally I wrote a post about the food! I was really into this idea and finally this day came. One of the things, why I have never done this before is because I didn't have a good camera. The second one, is that I was actually never into preparing a serious meal. To be honest, I still don't like to spend lots of time in the kitchen. And this is why I am preparing this post. To tell you, how to make a really nice meal without spending at least half of your day in the kitchen.

I know about this easy, fast and tasty recipe of Chilli Con Carne from my mum and as I remember she heard it from her friend. I knew how to make it, but I didn't know how much of everything do I need. So I just tried and here you go! Chilli Con Carne for six people! 

• 1kg of Beef Mince
• 3 cans of Heinz beans (like this)
• 1 red pepper
• 1/2 of garlic
• 2 * Chilli Con Carne spices (like this)
• Black pepper
• Salt

At the beginning you start baking beef mince with a red pepper and garlic. When you feel that the beef mince is already fine you add chilli con carne spices (read how to prepare it on the back of the package) and stew a little bit. After few minutes you can pour beans with it's sauce, mix everything and stew it again. Now it is the time when you try and think what it's missing. Add some more salt, black peppers. Stew for a little bit and try it again till you think that it is done.

I like to mash it a little bit with a blender, but it depends how you like. What I really recommend with  it -  is the garlic baguette and some grated permezan on the top.

Try it and enjoy!
